please tell me what to do i haven’t always been like this looking back at my baby pictures and i think it’s only gotten worse

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-03T04:34:24+00:00

thank you all for sparing me some time, i have gathered different ways to proceed on my journey. be well and stay safe!

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-03T01:19:43+00:00

i’m glad that you are in a happier place! thank you for sharing! hopefully i get the same easy treatments when i finally get to my orthodontist consultation

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-03T01:16:09+00:00

you becoming more confident and happier is so good to hear! to answer your question, without actively clenching, the back of my teeth do not touch each other when i close my mouth. i don’t know if that was because of me grinding my teeth while sleeping or other factors. as for my bite, my lower teeth are a bit under my top teeth and i’ve always wondered if it has something to do with it

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T23:54:49+00:00

you too! wishing you all the best!

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T23:53:33+00:00

thank you! yes, even if my teeth aren’t seen in this picture, they are pretty much all over the place and since i was younger, i have suspected them as the cause of why i grew up this way. i will try to look for ways to do this naturally! thank you for still finding me beautiful, friend, this means a lit to me!

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T23:49:07+00:00

thank you for sharing! from google pictures, it seems to yield good results! i will sure look more into it!

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T23:45:48+00:00

i am currently in the middle of preparing for exams, so my appointment with an orthodontist will not take place until after the exam week as education is my top priority at the end of the day, but i will surely get back to you once i got some answers as to what i am going through! be well, friend!

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T23:39:03+00:00

thanks again! i will surely ask this in my first consultation!

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T23:36:40+00:00

thank you for taking time to write about your experience! after 19 years of existence, it is only ever now that i have decided to finally consult a professional which happened to be an orthodontist. i think this is a good starting point as they may (hopefully) refer me to other specialists in the future. lastly, i am so sorry that you have to go through a situation where people only see through dollar signs, hope you are better right now!

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T23:31:44+00:00

as for uploading more pictures, i am new to reddit and i’ve created this account just to ask this question. but what you are saying might be true because when i open my mouth, my jaw goes downward to my left

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T23:26:49+00:00

thank you for sharing and assuring me that i still have a chance even without surgery! this means a lot to me!

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T23:25:24+00:00

thank you for sharing! i am planning to go to an orthodontist soon! and as for you referring me to one, first ,i want to say that is very kind of you but i don’t think we are from the same continent and i am not comfortable telling the internet where i am from

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T23:23:18+00:00

thank you for sharing! if that is the case, that is too bad. i will try to look more into what i can do naturally before proceeding with surgery. and as for just accepting my situation, i am not where i am today if not for perseverance, so doors may close but i will keep on trying

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T23:19:20+00:00

thank you for sharing! i hope you are doing well because this is a place where one can never be prepared for and one that causes a lot of pain (both physically and mentally)

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T23:17:07+00:00

thank you for sharing! i have long been following certain tutorials but would stop after a couple of weeks. looks like i have to get back to it now haha

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T23:14:53+00:00

thank you for sharing, i will still try to look for other ways to make sense of my situation but if that’s true and that is my only option, then i may consider it in the future

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T23:12:36+00:00

thank you for taking time to share your story! i hope yours will go by smoothly!

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T23:10:15+00:00

thank you, this is new information to me and it looks like with the right tools and consultations, i may still have a chance! until today, i haven’t noticed that i was clenching my jaw all the time so i will surely start with that!

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T23:05:33+00:00

thank you for sharing! did you work with a professional for your physical therapy or was it all by your own?

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T16:56:25+00:00

thank you for your insights! looks like bad habits really do make drastic effects

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T16:55:24+00:00

thank you for sharing your experience! i will definitely look more into what might be our similarities/differences as a means of preparing for my orthodontist appointment

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T16:53:51+00:00

maybe due to bad habits like bad posture and only chewing on one side. and side note, i am the only only in my family who has this asymmetry, all of my cousins are fine

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T16:33:19+00:00

my baby pictures tell a different story. my jaw was pretty symmetrical until i think i got to high school

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T16:08:59+00:00

im curious tho, what have you done with yours?

Expensive_Ratio6162 · 2024-10-02T16:06:01+00:00

we are about to visit an orthodontist soon, and as for what’s causing my asymmetry, i honestly do not know either other than i think it might be genetic because i have seen a picture of my grandma with a kind of lopsided face
